An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24508 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Smash Balloon Social Post Feed. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24508/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24508/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24508","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24508/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24508","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h2xq-fv4r-5784"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts via the feedID parameter, which execute in the context of logged-in administrators.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"smash_balloon_social_post_feed","vendor":"smashballoon"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Smash Balloon Social Post Feed WordPress plugin before 2.19.2 does not sanitise or escape the feedID POST parameter in its feed_locator AJAX action (available to both authenticated and unauthenticated users) before outputting a truncated version of it in the admin dashboard, leading to an unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue which will be executed in the context of a logged in administrator.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Smash Balloon Social Post Feed \u003c 2.19.2 - Unauthenticated Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24508","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Page View Counts \u003c 2.4.9 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24509"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Astra Pro Addon \u003c 3.5.2 - Unauthenticated SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24507"},"products":["Smash Balloon Social Post Feed"],"published":"2021-09-13","related":[{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Smash Balloon Social Post Feed \u003c 4.1.6 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4477","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-16"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Smash Balloon Social Post Feed \u003c 4.1.1 - Authenticated Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-25065","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-17"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Smash Balloon Social Post Feed \u003c 4.0.1 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Plugin Settings Update to Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24918","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts via the feedID parameter, which execute in the context of logged-in administrators.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24508/"}
